Tips

Do your waffles stick? Three tips can help: 1. Make sure the waffle iron is hot. (To test, flick a drop of water on the waffle iron. If it sizzles and steams, it's ready. If it pools, it's not.) 2. Do not lift the lid until the waffle stops steaming. 3. Thoroughly coat with cooking spray (or better yet, an oil mister) before pouring on the batter.

Directions

Preheat your waffle iron or a skillet. Combine the milk and oats in a large mixing bowl and let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the dry ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Add the butter, egg, and vanilla to the oats. Add the dry ingredients to the oatmeal mixture, stirring just until combined. Coat the preheated waffle iron or skillet with cooking spray.Scoop 3/4 cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron and close the lid. Let cook until the steam stops, about 3 minutes. Open the lid, remove the waffle, and place on a wire rack or immediately serve. Repeat with the remaining batter, coating the waffle iron with cooking spray each time.

If using a skillet, scoop 1/4 cup batter at a time, flipping when the pancakes start to bubble.

I like this concept and it is similar to mine. However I use 1 cup of leftover cooked oatmeal (it makes it less gummy), and I used whole wheat pastry flour. I also use butter milk or 1/2 skim milk and 1/2 yogurt. To get a crispier waffle I sometimes add corn meal and wheat bran.

I much prefer this recipe: "Simply Delicious Whole Wheat n' Flax Multigrain Blueberry Pancakes" which I uploaded to my recipes. I am not a fan of the oats in this recipe but overall is tasty. Will stick with my own recipe in the future.
